This Is A New Release Of The Original 1908 Edition.
1905. The Clansman is the second book of a series of historical novels planned on the Race Conflict. The Leopard's Spots was the statement in historical outline of the conditions from the enfranchisement of the Negro to his disenfranchisement. The Clansman develops the true story of the Ku Klux Klan Conspiracy, which overturned the Reconstruction regime...I have sought to preserve in this romance both the letter and the spirit of this remarkable period. The men who enact the drama of fierce revenge into which I have woven a double love-story are historical figures. I have merely changed their names without taking a liberty with any essential historic fact. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
1908. The Leopard's Spots is the statement in historical outline of the conditions from the enfranchisement of the Negro to his disenfranchisement. The book begins: On the field of Appomattox General Lee was waiting the return of a courier. His handsome face was clouded by the deepening shadows of defeat. Rumors of surrender had spread like wildfire, and the ranks of his once invincible army were breaking into chaos. Suddenly the measured tread of a brigade was heard marching into action, every movement quick with the perfect discipline, the fire, and the passion of the first days of the triumphant Confederacy.

A crowd of relatives and friends were pressing close to the ropes. Many of them had stood there all night, crazed with grief, wringing their hands, hoping and praying they might find some token of love left of those dear to them, and yet hoping against hope that they might find nothing and that their beloved would appear, saved by some miracle.
"To the brave and the proud there are visions darker than death." Trapped between feuding Klan members and carpetbaggers who are out to destroy his life, Southern aristocrat John Graham must fight to keep the honor of his family and his nation. Third in "The Trilogy of Reconstruction," The Traitor showcases the fall of the Ku Klux Klan, beginning with Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrestis order to dissolve the Klan. It takes place in the foothills of North Carolina, set in an atmosphere of fierce neighborhood feuds that historically marked the Klanis downfall in the Piedmont region of the South.
